First classes were held in a residence located to the rear of the church on what is now Marquette Place. The first president was the Rev. Albert Biever, S.J., who was appointed by the provincial, Rev. William Power, S.J.

The Institute is a collaboration of Loyola University New Orleans and the Society of Jesus rooted in the faith that does justice.

Career

We assist students in discovering their strengths and pursuing a plan for applying them beyond the university. And we partner with a wide diversity of employers—through job postings, career fairs, on-campus interviews, and professional development events—to connect Loyola students with internships, part- and full-time jobs, and graduate schools. We encourage every student to make use of our services, early and often, online and in person.

At Loyola, we cultivate a learning environment in the Jesuit tradition. Think of Student Affairs as your ultimate resource for getting the most out of our holistic educational experience, both on and off campus. You’ll discover, develop, and apply life skills that will prepare you to become a well-developed and responsible member of your community.

At Loyola, you’re always busy learning, inventing, leading, thinking, and dreaming up the ways you’ll impact the world. Inspiration comes from all sides of our campus community. Lean on every experience, and everyone around you, to create who you want to be.

Treatment in our office is confidential and free, though patients are responsible for any prescriptions, lab work, x-rays, or referred hospital services.

Student clubs

One of the best ways to enrich your collegiate years is to get involved with clubs and organizations that fit your interests. There are plenty of ways to get involved since there are over 100 active student organizations on Loyola’s campus. Getting actively involved on campus and in the New Orleans Community will not only help you find what you’re passionate about, but it will also give you the best four years of your life. 

At Loyola University New Orleans College of Law, we highly recommend that students get involved in organizations. There are many benefits to joining an organization which include, among other things, making new friends, becoming better acquainted with different aspects of law.
